Danish black metal outfit Orm will release its third album, Intet • Altet, through Copenhagen-based label Indisciplinarian. Intet • Altet (‘The Nothing • The All’) is a double album once again expanding on Orm’s epic and visionary black metal through a narrative about four life phases, which unfolds over four grandiose compositions with a total running time of ninety-two minutes.
Intet • Altet tackles the four stages of life, inspired by the band’s own progression - personally and musically. Each of the four compositions centers around a distinct life stage: the fiery youth, the burdened adult, the ascetic hermit, and finally the ascension into the next realm. The lyrics are inspired by the psalms and legends that mark the passage between the life stages, and ultimately the inevitable passage from life to death.
Orm has already shared three visualizers containing excerpts from each of the album’s first three compositions - “Fra Dyden,” “Floden, Som Kan Skabe,” and “Trance/Floden, Som Kan Lede” - out of the four in all (check for them via the related articles below). This week, the fourth and final visualizer excerpt from the album’s fourth composition “Mod Døden” (“Towards Death”) is shared. After the three first compositions describing the life phases of youth, adulthood, and old age respectively, the fourth composition confronts the passage from life into death. Give a listen to it in the player below, and over HERE you can check out the previous excerpt. Link
